Multistate actions Montana's attorney general joined
- Letter from 42 attorneys general on sycophantic and delusional AI December 9, 2025
Joining a letter or court filing is not a lawsuit or a finding against any company.
Other Montana laws that may matter
- Consumer protection law: Montana Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Act (Mont. Code Ann. section 30-14-101 et seq.). It applies to businesses generally, not to chatbots specifically; whether it reaches a particular chatbot practice is a legal question.
- Consumer privacy law: Montana Consumer Data Privacy Act (Mont. Code Ann. section 30-14-2801 et seq.). It sets rules for personal data, which can include what people type into a chatbot, for businesses that meet its thresholds.
The 2027 legislative session
The Montana Legislature convenes on January 4, 2027. New chatbot bills will be added to our 2027 tracker as they are filed.
What still applies
Without a state chatbot law, companies serving Montana residents may still face other states' laws when they serve users there, general consumer protection law and federal rules. Congress is considering 13 chatbot bills; see federal bills.
